also of the velvet. The basque was
fastened down the front by a row OF
small spherical cloth-cOvered buttons
set very closely together, and these
were continued down the front OF the
skirt, on either side Of them being a
wide facing of green velvet. The space
between these facings and the faclngs
Themselves formed the centre panel OF
the skirt, which was laid in wide plaits
on each side TO the back drapcry, the
latter being light and graceful. There
was no tQ6iiu' or drapery upon the
front.
As there are still left a few nights OF
dancing and gayety in the city, the
above illustration as an evening dress
will. perhaps, not be deemed altogether
ill-timed. Green satin and Jaihc in
combination form the materials OF this
toilet. which is trimmed with lace aud
with pearl beads, with which the front
skirt panel is embroidered. The How
ers worn at the waist and upon the
shoulders are tea-roses.
StIaws of all kinds naturally rule the
present season in millinery. These are
shown in considerable variety, the
shapes being particularly odd.
One very jaunty shape has a low
brim, which turns up on each side
halfway back, at which point, with a
sudden twist, it rises nearly to the top
of the crown. The latter is covered
with Jet beads, applied over lace, there
by giving an odd but beautiful effect.
The under side of the brim is edged
with dark brown velvet, and knot OF
pale pink ribbon, mingled gracefully
with black lace, form the garniture on
the front of the hat, which also includes
a very impossible bird, perched in an
unnatural attitude upon the side.
Another shape, of very plain brown
straw, has n low, turned-up brim all
the way around, covered with sage
green velvet. Three large plumes ale
mingled upon the top of the crown,
falling over and concealing its sides,
the colors being mauve and sage Il
velvet bow upon the front completes
the gaInitue of a hat which takes but
little while to trim, but which yields
very excellent result.
An English shape is in gray fancy
straw, trimmed with gray ribbons and
feathers. The brim, which slopes from
the front, where it almost disappears,
to the rear, attaining there quite a
height, is covered IN English pink
plush, and feather tip nesting among
the gray ribbons on top is of the same
color.
Black stockings are almost universal
for children's wear, and are prescribed
for almost any sort of costume. Where
the hosiery is colored the prevailing
tint in the dress should be reproduced
in the stockings.
Crepe lisse is much liked for parasols,
and when used for this purpose is fire.

The story is now being told OF con-
scientious tithing man in New Eng
lard town years ago. General H., the
Zig man OF the town, had a daughter,
who was educated in Boston. Once
she brought home with her a lOyer-a
Poston man, now a merchant OF that
city. He won't to church with her, sat
in the same pew, and when the first
hymn was given out found it and hand
ed the hymn-book to her. She bowed
and took it. Second hymn, the same.
The tithing man lookedand frowned,
but did not quite like to offend General
H. But he thought it over and over,
and his conscience accused him of be-
ing a respecter" of persons. He
took his seat in the afternoon, resolved
to do his duty fearlessly. The hymn
was given out. The young man found
il. and handed the book to Miss II. /;
she bowed, and took it. Rap, rap, rap,
went the old mans stick. Then point
ing TO General H. IS pew, "You, you'll
mean General HIS gal and her Boston
beaul None of your carrying on here,

C-aIgnish castle.

Tradition relates that severe battle
took place near this castle in ancient
times between the Danes, under Olave,
or CLANS, the son of their monarch, and
the natives, headed by their king, IN
the valley of Barbreck. The battle
began, it is said, on spot called Drum
rec. In the first encounter the natives
were obliged to give way and retreat
up the valley. Receiving reinforce
ment, they rallied at a place called
Slogan, and renewed the action with
such vigor that the foreigners were
compelled to fall back. Uric, a Dan
ish general, was slain here, and a gray
stone still marks the spot where he
fell. Olave and the Scottish king are
here said to have fought in single COM
bat. and after fierce struggle the
foreigner was slain. During the civil
war in the reign of Charles /. AleXln-
der Macdonald, styled Colquitto, who
led 800 Irish to the assistance of Mont
rose and accompanied him in the win
ter of 1914 into Argyllshire, is said to
have entered Craignish for the purpose
of LAYING it waste, putting It's inhabi-
tants to the sword and driving away
its cattle. Campbell, the chieftain,
informed of his approach, took every
necessary precaution to defeat his OBJ
iect. All the cattle in the district he
caused to be removed to the neighbor-
ing islands, and swelled the garrison OF
the castle by receiving into it all OF his
clan who were fit for arms. Macdonald,
on his arrival, Immediately began a
siege but after spending six weeks in
vain attempt to take it found it neces-
sary to abandon his purpose The
Danes evidently devoted much atten-
ton to this neighborhood, as no fewer
than eleven forts are to be seen.

New YORK, May 7, 1887.
For the summer season about to
omen the display of materials for dress
making is n large and comprehensive
one. The fabrics exhibit the most ex-
ouisite weayes and designs, while the
variety is such that no lady, however
extensive her wardrobe, need include
therein two dresses OF the same fabric.
The colors with which the season
prcets us do not include many new
shades. but the most appropriate of
these already known to fashion are
shown. among which mode all the
lighter and mcst pleasing shades OF
brown, gray-from the palest French
pray TO the darkest slate tint-helio-
trorc. o tenn which now implies any
color from pale lavender to (almost)
q royal purple. Green is very fully
reprtsented in all the fashionable dress
foods, particularly the fine woollens,
the shades in favor being the dark,
rich tint. termed "russct," brownish
shade called eucalyptus, and several
of the lighter variations of this popular
color. Besides these acajou, navy tur-
quoise, and cici blues and ecru shades
will all be in favor, making an OK
ceedingly attractive list.
In fabrics the finer grades of Toollen
weaves stand foremost. These goods
are even finer and softer than they have
previously been shown, and comprise
armures. camel's.hair, chuddah cloths,
and number of mixed materials,
which are technically known as can

the former taking a prominent place
among the seasonable dress goods.
Foulards, tussores, satines, ginghams,
and lawns, with many kindred stuffS,
are to be worn for lighter and more
airy toilets, these materials being in
some cases trimmed with velvet.
Checks and stripes are seen without
number on every hand, and velvet and
wool combinations, fancy mixed fabrics,
casLmeres, chamberys, canvas-cloths,
and Examines will all occupy honored
places.

Meissonicr Reproduction or"isO.."


I raid a visit to Meissonier to-day
at his magnificent studio in the Place
Malosherbes. | found the venerable
master hard at work on his immense
water-color, the reproduction Of his IA
nous picture 1857" The water
color is two and half metres in length
and one metre and a half high. 1t IS,
perhaps, the largest water-color ever
painted. It will be completed in about
three weeks. 1t will be one OF the
finest and most carefully-executed
works that Meissonier has ever painted.
1t is not strictly reproduction of the
famous "lS07, for the position OF the
artillery in the background is entirely
changed and the grouping Of the troops
totally different from the original.
1t is the same subject treated in the
same manner, but with great difference
in the drawing and the execution.
IT is to be very carefully en-
graved, and can not seriously affect tho
intrinsic value Of the oil painting
"1SO7," so highly appreciated in New
York.

work done with the great Washington
telescope since 1878 with that done with
the nine-inch equatorial, which had
been employed from 1S47 up to that
time, makes the latter seem almost in
significant.
The great equatorials ct Princeton
and the University of Virginia have
been too recently mounted to require
mention, but although other instances
might be named, think / have given
enough 10 show that for certain classes
of work large telescopes are far supe-
rior. and that American astronomers
know how TO handle such instruments.
Professor Young, in review OF re-
cent progress in astronomy, says:
"Nhile no great discovery like that OF
gIayitation appears upon the record,
yet / am inclined to think that, with
one or two exceptions During the life
of Calico and Newton), no other de-
cade in ell our unseltish science can
make better showing. AS an Amerl-
can, too, have been surprised and de-
lighted to find how honorable a place
our American astronomers hold III the
record"
49,, this gives us hope for the success
Of the great Lick telescope and, while
no dazzling discoveries may be made,
we may reasonably look for useful adj
ditions to science which could not be
obtained with a smaller instrument.
The director, Professor Holden, in a
recent article in the OUorland monthly,
gives a review of what photography is
doing and is likely to do in aid of as
tronomy. and announces his intention
to devote the great telescope princi-
pally TO celestial photography. This
new and interesting field will furnish
ample opportunity for valuable work.
The power of the instrument far sur
passes any hitherto constructed, and
The location of the observatory has
been tested and pronounced to be SUI
perb for the purpose. or the two
assistants whom Professor Holden
has selected, one, Mr.. Burn
ham. has proved his capacity by his dis
tinguished services as an observer OF
double stars, while the other, MIR. Very,
is the well-known assistant OF Professor
Langley. Professor Holden himself
was for several years one of the as
tronomers of the naval observatory,
where he made the most extended Sc
ries of photometric observations of the
Nebula of Orion which had thus far
been made. More recently he has been
known as the energetic director of the
Washburn observatory of the Univer.
sity of Wisconsin, and has published
several volumes of the work accom-
plished there. Very respectfully yours,

Tuesday while on his way to the hotel.
He was a powerfully-built. heavy
chested man, and was apparently in the

day night. Heart-disease is supposed
to have killed him. Hotel-porters are
not lopg-liyed. The lifting and carry
ing of the heavy trunks of the present
day are q severe strain. The men do
not seem to mind it when they are at
work, but a few years Of heavy toll
tells upon them. They have to be more
careful in handling baggage than the
men who load and unload railroad cars

smasher, il is claimed, lives ten years
